Bus Stop

Bus Stop were a British dance act made up of Darren Sampson, alongside Graham Turner, Mark Hall and Nikki Reid (Lane). The group was formed in 1998 and had a string of hit singles before disbanding in 2002. Main vocalist, Sampson, went on to represent the UK in the 2006 Eurovision Song Contest. Their first hit reached #8 in 1998 with their single Kung Fu Fighting, which samples lyrics sung by Carl Douglas who originally had a UK #1 hit with the song in 1974. The group also covered Jump, originally by Van Halen, which reached #22 in the UK in 1999. They seemed to have disappeared by 2001 but Daz Sampson, a member of the group made a comeback with his song entitled Teenage Life. Their hit single Kick the Can, has also received wide acclaim by Dance Dance Revolution fans everywhere.
